Deconstruction: Basement

Here are some demolition pictures from the basement as of Day 3.

It’s hard to tell from the “before” picture but the kitchen was a galley kitchen confined to a tight space. In the following pictures, the divider wall is gone and the whole space opened up.

In these pictures, you can see the “before” picture of the living room and then the massive pile of garbage from the demolition from the same angle.

Demolition Day 2

Here are the “before” and demolition pictures from the master bedroom. In the demolition pictures, the ensuite has been totally removed (except for the plumbing).

The spare room also underwent an overhaul and is completely emptied.

We’d hoped that there would be a possibility to raise the ceiling in the bathroom. Unfortunately, we discovered a concrete pad above it. So, on the bright side – we won’t touch that bathroom (except to scour it).

Why we can’t raise the ceiling in the bath: concrete floor.

The guys took down the wall dividing the living room and the furnace room today. More pictures to follow.
